Why ride jockey on a real fast horse
Doin' ninety miles 'round the Derby course
When the crazy horse begins to real and rock
For a cute little filly in some bobby socks
Night long, baby all night long

Real big wheel, drivin' a Cadillac
Pull over to the curves, bend the front seat back

Wailin' on the corner like an ol' Tom Cat
Shoutin' and a shakin' almost off my bat
Who walks by?
Me oh my

Jumpin' Jeshosaphat
Big Blon' Baby!
Yesterday she kissed me she was so divine

I like to do a little rock, do a little roll
Country boogie woogie God is deep down in my soul
But it's good, got a hold on me
And I'm the boogie woogie boogie boogie
Boogie woogie man from Tennessee

Woman, let me catch you bulldog, let me take your bone
Shake it for ya, break it for ya all night loooong

"Born To Lose"

Out where the bright lights are glowing
You're drawn like a moth to a flame
You laugh while the wine's overflowing
While I sit and whisper your name

[Chorus]

Well, who's that guy you've been seein' most every day?
He shouldn't be allowed to come and take my baby away
Baby, why don't you wake up, all we gotta do is make up
Come on baby, don't break up with me

Well, I saw you walkin' with him just the other night
I almost flipped when I saw him squeeze you tight
Baby, why don't you wake up, all we gotta do is make up

Now if you love me please don't tease

If I can hold then let me squeeze

My heart goes round and round

My love comes a tumblin' down

One, two
One, two, three, four

Carry me back to old Virginia
That's where the cotton
And the corn and taters grow
Keep on growing now

Hello baby yeah this is the Big Bopper speaking ha ha you sweet thing

Do I what will I what oh baby you know what I like
Chaintily lace and a pretty face and a pony tail hangin' down
A wiggle and a walk and a giggle and a talk made the world go round
There ain't nothing in the world
Like a big eyed girl to make me act so funny make me spend my money
Make me fool real loose like a long necked goose

I am yours and you are mine, come what may
A love like ours remains divine, come what may
Even though we’re miles apart, you’re living in my lonely heart
Even though the tear drops start, fills the long, long day

Got your picture near me since you went away
Plant a kiss upon my lips both night and day
Bearing mind that you are fine, a love that’s true

Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel
And the storm's brewing in this heart of mine
This ain't no crazy dream I know that it's real
You're someone else's love now you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
While my yearning heart keeps saying you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed

Caterina
Oh! Ho! Ho!

When we kiss, pretty miss, pretty miss, I'm in ecstasy
Caterina
Oh! Ho! Ho! Ho! Ho!

But when we kiss, pretty miss, pretty miss, are you thinking of me?

You know I can be found sittin' home all alone
If you can't come around a least please telephone
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true
Baby if I made you mad for somethin' I might have said
Please let's forget the past the future looks bright ahead
Don't be cruel I got a heart so true
I don't want no other love honey it's just you I'm thinkin' of
Let's walk up to the preacher and let us say I do

Well, you can't be my lovin', baby
You ain't got the style
I'm a gonna get some real gone love
That'll drive a cool cat wild

I wanna move, move on down the line
Gonna get me a gal then I go out on the town
Well, I wanna move on down the line

Way down in New Orleans everythings fine
All them cats just drinkin' that wine
Drinkin' that mess is sure delight
When they get slop drunk they sing all night
Drinkin' Wine Spo-De-O-De Drinkin' Wine
Drinkin' Wine Spo-De-O-De Drinkin' Wine
Drinkin' Wine Spo-De-O-De
Pass that bottle to me!

Well the way is dark
The night is long
I don't care if I ever get home
I'm waiting
At the end of the road
Well the stars may not shine
Neither the moon
What the heck we don't want no blues

Well, now when I get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair
Well, now when I get the blues, gonna get me a rockin' chair
And when the blues overtake me, gonna rock right away from here

Now when I get lonesome, I get on the telephone
Now when I get lonesome, I get on the telephone
Well, I call my baby, tell her I'm on my way back home

Can I cast the shadow of your mem'ry from the past
And dreams about the love we shared of that couldn't last
But as times goes on I won't give up to have you back again
I guess I'm just a foolish kind of man
Foolish kind of man that's what they tell me
I wonder about the love you never gave me
If you would only stop and think about the love that was true
Then you'll know how much darlin' I have to offer you

Everybody tells me love is blind
Maybe so 'cause I refuse to see
Everybody tells me things you do
But I don't care 'cause I'm a fool for you

It doesn't really matter what you are
It only matters what you are to me
Maybe I'm not wise enough to see

Frankie and Johnny were sweethearts,
Boy, how they could love!
Swore to be true to each other,
True as the stars above!
'Cause he was her man,
But he done her wrong!

One night Frankie happened to pass by the hotel;

God grant me the serenity to remember who I am.

У Джерри Ли, помимо исполнительского таланта, ещё отменный подход к песням, которые он каверил. Ну и да, Killer Rock On - шикарнейший концертник, это как бы даже и не обсуждается)

Jerry Lee Lewis » Johnny B. Goode - текст песни
Johnny B. Goode

Deep down in Lousiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood an old cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write so well

Good golly Miss Molly, you sure like to ball
Good golly, Miss Molly, honey you sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and you're rollin' you can't hear your momma call
From the early, early mornin' to the early, early night
You can hear miss Molly coming as she's running for her life
Good golly, miss Molly, you sure like to ball
When you're rockin' and you rollin' you can't hear your momma, momma call, yeah

Well I heard the news
There's good rockin' tonight.
Well I heard the news
There's good rockin' tonight.
Gonna hold my baby as tied as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty mighty man.
Well I heard the news
There's good rockin' tonight.

You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

[band joins]

I learned to love all of Hollywood money

You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

I learned to love all of Hollywood money
You came along and you moved me honey
I changed my mind, looking fine

Hand me down my walking cane
Hand me down my walking cane
Hand me down my walking cane
Lord, I'm leaving on the midnight train
All my sins are taken away

Well, hand me down my rocking shoes
Hand me down my rocking shoes

God made man and then God made a woman
Well he never meant for them to turn out bad
Inside he placed a heart for beating and oh what a beating mine's had
Scattered pieces of my heart lay all around me each one filled with love it almost had
How much longer can heart let go on beating cause Lord what a beating mine's had
Well a heart born to lose can never win
But each beat of my heart gives me strength to try again
How much longer can heart let go on beating cause Lord what a beating mine's had

You better open up honey its your lover boy me that's a knockin'
You better listen to me sugar all the cats are at the High School rockin'
Honey get your boppin' shoes Before the juke box blows a fuse
Got everbody hoppin' everybody boppin'

Shakin' at the High School Hop
I've rollin' at the High School Hop

You better open up honey its your lover boy me that's a knockin'
You better listen to me sugar all the cats are at the High School rockin'
Honey get your boppin' shoes Before the juke box blows a fuse

You broke my will, oh what a thrill
Goodness gracious great balls of fire

I learned to love all of Hollywood money

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hou-ound dog-ah
Whinin' all the ti-ime
You ain't never caught a rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine

Woh, now they told me you was high class

Well I heard the other day
From some people who passed this way
They were saying you were untrue
I love you baby, no matter what you do
They say you'll leave me
And I'm just a fool
All I'll ever be is your footstool
But I believe, oh honey right now

At the liquor store I bought
Myself and old ticket
Straight to a headache and a
Way out of my mind
I had a snort or two on my
Way down to the old watering hole
To get lost in the smoke and
The music one more time

But I can't seem to say goodbye

Gone is the sunshine we knew once before
Now we're just living our lives
But when it comes time dear
To walk out the door

Well, I can't seem to say goodbye

I get the blues when it rains the blues I can't lose when it rains
Each little drop that falls on my window pane
Always reminds me of tears I've shed in vain
I sit and wait for the sun to shine down on me once again
It rained when I found you rained when I lost you
That's why I get the blues when it rains
[ guitar ]
I get the blues when it rains...

Well it's true so true I didn't do right by you
Guess I didn't know exactly what to do someday I'll make it all up to you
Well it's true so true I didn't do right by you
Guess I didn't know exactly what to do someday I'll make it all up to you
When we met I thought we'd be so happy that we would be so gay
But since we met I thought we'd be so happy but now you're gone away
Lord I'm blue so blue but baby I don't blame you
Guess I didn't know the right things to do someday I'll make it all up to you

We've been sweethearts for so long
But now you say we're through
The love you said
Is just a memory

I have built a ship of dreams
I planned then all for you
I guess what will be

I'm looking over a four leaf clover,
That I overlooked before,
First is the sunshine, the second is rain,
Third is the roses that bloom in the lane.

There's no need explaining,
The one remaining is somebody I adore,
I'm looking over a four leaf clover,

Jerry Lee Lewis lyrics : "I'm On Fire"

Help me mister fireman, please
You know I'm burning from my head to my knees
I'm aflame with such a burning desire
A little girl set my soul on fire
She's got me burning up like a paper cup
Hmmm, hmmm, I'm on fire

I'm throwing rice at the girl that I love
After she just said "I do"
I'm throwing rice with a smile on my face
My heart is breaking in two

She's was my gal, he was my pal
But she loved him better somehow
I'll step aside after I've kissed the bride

I received my invitation to your party
And I hope that you don't think that I'll attend
Although I'm not conceited or a smarty
I still recall the things that might have been

I recall many times you said you loved me
Before your someone new drove us apart
Did you invite me to your party 'cause you miss me

The warden threw a party in the county jail.
The prison band was there and they began to wail.
The band was jumpin and the joint began to swing.
You shouldve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.
Lets rock, everybody, lets rock.
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancin to the jailhouse rock.

When John Henry was a little bitty boy
He picked up a hammer in his hand
Looked up at his mama and smilingly said
I want to be a steel drivin' man
Lord, Lord, I want to be a steel drivin' man

Soon John Henry grew up to be a man
And took a hammer in his hand

I woke up this mornin' with the sundown shinin' in
I found my mind in a brown paper bag, but then...
I tripped on a cloud and fell eight miles high
I tore my mind on a jagged sky
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in

(Yeah, yeah, oh-yeah, what condition my condition was in)

My name is Jerry Lee Lewis, come from Louisiana
I'm gonna do you a little boogie on this here piano
Doing mighty fine, I'm gonna make you shake it
I'll make you do it and make you do it until you break it
It's called the Lewis boogie, in the Lewis way
Lord, I do my little boogie woogie every day
Well, down in New Orleans, the land of dreams
The best doggone place, son, you have ever seen

Well I'm makin' alright from Monday morning to Friday night
Oh those lonely weekends
Since you left me I'm as lonely as I can be oh those lonely weekends
Said you'd be (said you'd be) so good to Jerry Lee (good to me)
You said our love (said our love) would never die (never die)
You said you'd be (said you'd be) so good to me (good to me)
But baby you didn't even try
Well I'm makin' alright (well I'm makin' alright) from Monday morning to Friday night

Gonna tell aunt Mary 'bout uncle John
He claim he has the misery, but he's havin' a lot of fun
Oh baby, yeah baby, woo baby
Havin' me some fun tonight

Well, long tall Sally, she's built for speed
She's got everything that uncle John need
Oh baby, yeah baby, woo baby

(One two one two three four)
Well busted flat in Baton Rouge a headin` for the trains
Feelin` nearly faded as my jeans
Ol` Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
Lord took us all the way to New Orleans
Pulled my ol` har`poon out of my dirty red bandana
Blowed it low while Bobby sang the blues
With them windshield whipers slappin` time

I got a woman mean as she can be
I got a woman mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me.

A black cat up and died of fright
'Cause she crossed his path last night
Oh, I got a woman mean as she can be
Sometimes I think she's almost mean as me.

Лучшие вещи в жизни бесплатны
Но вы можете оставить их птицам и пчелкам
Теперь дайте мне денег (вот что я хочу)
Вот чего я хочу (это то, что я хочу), да
Вот чего я хочу

Ваша любовь дает мне трепет
Но вашей любовью,не оплатишь счета

Gone are the days when my heart was young and gay
Gone are the toils of the cotton fields away
Gone to the fields of a better land I know
I hear those gentle voices calling, "Old Black Joe"

I'm coming, I'm coming
For my head is bending low
I hear those gentle voices calling, "Old Black Joe"

Mistakes I know I've made them and you don't know how much I hate them
But that's me darlin' and I don't guess ol' Jerry will ever change
And I don't mean to hurt you heaven knows I hate to hurt you
But here I am to ask forgiveness one more time
One more time I'll ask you to forgive me one more time I'll come crawling back to you
All I ask is a chance to show how much I love you so
Will you please take me back one more time

You may think I'm foolish For the foolish things I do
You may wonder how come I love you
When you get on my nerves like you do
Well baby you know you bug me
There ain't no secret 'bout that
Well come on over here and hug me
Baby I'll spill the facts
Well honey it ain't your money 'Cause baby I got plenty of that

Well, I'm shakin' and I'm nervous all over
And I don't mind tellin' you why
I lost my breath to the hands of death
And baby gonna say goodbye
It's all over town, my baby's put me down
Well, my mind is blanked up and dizzy
And I think I'm a gonna cry
If I find it's true, she found somebody new

Everyone knows she's a ramblin' rose
She's a beauty growin' wild!
Birds in their nest seem to whistle their best
For mother nature's favourite child!

She's got the kind of affection
That just winds around your heart!
You better run for protection

Reuben James in my song you'll live again
And the phrases that I rhyme are just the footsteps out of time
From the time when I knew you Reuben James
Hey Reuben James all the folks around Madison Caunty cussed your name
Just a no count of colored man who'd steal anything that he can
And they always laid the blame on Reuben James
Hey Reuben James you still walk the furrowed fields of my mind
The faded shirt the wrinkled brow the calloused hand upon the plow

Love is a burning thing and it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire I fell into a ring of fire
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down down down and the flames went higher
And it burns burns burns the ring of fire the ring of fire
[ trumpet ]
I fell into a burning ring of fire...
The taste of love is sweet when hearts like ours meet

Well I ain't no double o seven I ain't no double o soul
I'm not the coolest cat around my love needs a Mohair Sam
I'm not the son of the seventh son but I'm a next thing to a son-of-a-gun
They call me shotgun, honey I'm the shotgun man
I may not be an engineer baby but I know how to run your train
I'm no firefighter either but I know how to put out your flame
I'm a man that likes to have fun oh I'm the next thing to a son-of-a-gun
Shotgun honey I'm the shotgun man whoa play it boy

Well it's one for the money, two for the show
Three to get ready, now go cat go
But don't you, step on my blue suede shoes
You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes
You can knock me down, step in my face
Slander my name all over the place
And do anything that you want to do
But uh uh honey lay off of my shoes

People talkin' tryin' to break us up why won't they let me be
Sticks and stones may break my bones but words don't bother me
I've been abused in my heart I've been abused I've been abused in my heart
People talkin' tryin' to break us up they know I love you so
I don't care what the people may say I'll never never let you go
I've been abused in my heart I've been abused yeah I've been abused in my heart
[ piano - guitar ]
Oh people talkin' tryin' to break us up scandlizin' my name

They're really rocking in Boston,
in Philadelphia PA,
deep in the heart of Texas,
on down the Frisco Bay.
All over Saint Louis
and down in New Orleans.
All the cats want to dance with
sweet little sixteen.

If I promise you to straightin' up and put my life in order
If I swear to you woman on bendin' knees I won't hurt you again
If I become the kind of man that you want me to be
Would you take another chance on me?
The good lord knows I've done you wrong I've asked him to forgive me
Deep inside I think he would if you could do the same
If I could take back all the things that caused you misery
Would you take another chance on me?

Teenage letter, rock 'n' roll state
'Scuse me, baby, I've a-got to wait
'Cause I love you
Oh Lord, I love you, Oh yeah!
And I'm gonna love you baby
I've gotta prove it in my own way
Oh Yeah!

We take you now, to the municipal airport at Memphis, Tennessee
Where rock'n'roll singer Jerry Lee Lewis and his new bride
Have just arrived from a tour of the British Isles

Our on-the-spot announcer had just notified us that Mr. Lewis has consented to an interview
Come in, Edward R. Edward

This is Edward R. Edward at the municipal airport in Memphis, Tennessee

Take the ribbon from your hair shake it loose and let it fall
Laying soft upon my skin like the shadows on the wall
Come on and lay down by my side till the early morning light
All I'm taking is your time just help me make it through the night
I don't care what's right or wrong I don't try to understand
Let the devil take tomorrow Lord tonight I need a friend
Well yesterday is dead and gone yes it is and tomorrow's out of sight
It's so sad to be alone (think about it now) help me make it through the night

Well I rocked over Italy and rocked in Spain
Rocked in Memphis, it was all the same
Well, I rocked through Africa and roll of the ship
And seen them natives doin' a hot-lookin' skip
I parted the weeds and looked over the swamp
I seen them cats doin' the Ubangi stomp

Ubangi-stomp with rock and roll

All around the water tank
Waitin' for a train
I'm a thousand miles away from home
Sleeping in the rain

I walked up to a brakeman
Just to make a line of talk
He said, "Son if you've got money"

When a man loves a woman, he can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll trade the world for the good thing he's found
If she is bad, he can't see it, she can do no wrong
Turn his back on his best friend if he put her down

When a man loves a woman, spend his very last dime
Tryin' to hold on to what he needs
He'd give up all his comforts, sleep out in the rain

Well a-when the saints go marching in,
when the saints go marching in
mm I want to be, I'm gonna be in that number,
ooo when the saints go marching in.

Oh when the sun yeah begins to shine.
when that old sun begins to shine,
I tell you something I'm gonna be I'm gonna be in that number,

Come over baby
whole lot of shakin' goin' on
Yes, I said come over baby
baby you can't go wrong
We ain't fakin'
Whole lot of shakin' goin' on

Well I said come over baby

Well, I am just out of school
I am real real cool
I got the jump got the jive
Got the message I'm alive

I'm a wild I'm wild one
Oh, yeah, I'm a wild one

Wolverton Mountain
Merle Kilgore and Claude King, 1962

They say don't go on Wolverton Mountain,
if you're looking for a wife.
'Cause Clifton Clowers has a pretty
young daughter,
he's mighty handy with a gun and a knife.

Well you can have her I don't want her she didn't love me anyway
She only wanted someone to play with Jerry Lee wanted a love to stay
Well if you get stuck with the wrong woman there's only one thing that you can do
Just dig a hole jump right in it pull the ground right over you
You can have her (you can have her) I don't want her (I don't want her),
She didn't love me (she didn't love me ) anyway (anyway)
She only wanted (she only wanted) someone to play with (someone to lay with)
But all I wanted (but all I wanted) was love to stay (was love to stay)

You Win Again (Jerry Lee Lewis)

The news is out all over town

That you've been seen out runnin' around

I know that I should leave, but then
